As many countries in the World, Pakistan also has a glorious past, present and God willing a beautiful future. Although currently it is in an unstable situation, but I still love to visit and enjoy the attractions available in many cities like Lahore, Karachi, Faisalabad, Islamabad and Peshawar.

Restaurants:
Pakistani food has been very popular among tourists; even if they are not a big fan of strong spices they could get all kinds of foods in most restaurants. There are so many choices in Pakistani foods and you can find good food in every price range. I personally like very spicy food, but I prefer to eat at home because I think my mom is the best cook in the whole world. You can also taste good Pakistani food in different restaurants in Washington DC area, for more information on Pakistani Restaurants in Washington DC, click:
Museums:
Pakistan inherited seven historical museums with few sections on arts and culture after independence in 1947. Most prominent museums are located in Lahore, Karachi and Rawalpindi. The development of museums has been very impressive in the last few decades and quite a few museums have been established since then. For more information, visit:
Architecture:
Pakistan and Pakistanis are very proud of their Architectural heritage; there are so many new and old buildings all over the country to keep the tourists' attention from all over the world. Starting from the Indus Valley civilization to Modern Pakistan, there is so much to see and explore especially in the main cities like Lahore, Karachi Islamabad and Rawalpindi. You can also visit:
Gardens:
Great buildings and gardens from Mughal period are a huge asset for Pakistanis. Shalamar garden Lahore is one of the most beautiful and well known gardens from Mughal period. Construction of this garden was ordered in 1641, as the Shah Nahr canal from the Ravi River drew near Lahore. The garden officially opened in 1642. Shalamar is also the site of moving spiritual stories and poetry. For information on other gardens in Pakistan, please click on any of the following links:
